Greetings all,
This Monday, May 26 1.00-2.30 in the philosophy common room Dr. Mark van der Pals will talk to us about "A theory of the electron". Abstract: Quantization appears to be a fundamental feature of the physical world. It is the ultimate source of the interpretational problems of quantum mechanics. It has given rise, for example, to the Schroedinger equation, and so to the interpretational issues connected with that equation -- such as the nature of the quantum field psi appearing in it, and the related measurement and non-locality problems. Yet the origin of quantization remains a mystery. I propose a new advanced action interpretation of quantum mechanics. The interpretation seems to provide a natural answer to the question of the origin of quantization, as well as to the question of the nature of the fields of quantum mechanics.
